As I hinted in the Forum post I am not completely out and work on other
projects which will not consume that much time. Well, here comes the first
try :-)
Many GNU/Linux enthusiasts had contact with with the Slackware GNU/Linux
distro and appreciate it's clear structure. Slackware follows the Unix and
KISS principles very strictly.
Slackware is the oldest surviving and still maintained GNU/Linux distro out
there. For experienced GNU/Linux users Slackware is very simple to
administrate. That's why many GNU/Linux users prefer the simplicity of
Slackware over GUI driven configuration wizards
Unfortunately Slackware does not have a clear policy about what software can
be included, and nonfree blobs are included in Linux, the kernel.
There are sevceral fully free distros which are based on popular GNU/Linux
Distros, for example Trisquel, which is based on Ubuntu, BLAG is based on
RedHat/Fedora and Parabola GNU/Linux is based on Arch. But curiously there is
no fully free Slackware equivalent.
For this reason I've created the “slack-n-free” repo. It is not a
complete distro. As for now there are builds of the Linux-Libre kernel
available, tracking Slackware kernel builds with version numbers
corresponding to Slackwares.
